We are off to the east coast. Hopefully that will include significant time in Canada visiting PEI and Nova Scotia. But, as of 17 Jun, Americans cannot visit Canada for tourism. Maybe that will change before we get to Sault St Marie, which is our intended entry point into Canada.
If not, we will enjoy the better part of a month riding in New England. First up is riding from Paso to Great Falls Montana for the BMW MOA Rally. Typically, that means about 5,000 motorcycles in one little Montana town. Amazing to see. We will stay there about four days before heading east.

This was a bit longer ride focused on southern Baja in February. Part of my pandemic motorcycle social distancing campaign.
On this trip we went to Magdalena Bay for whale watching—a first. Then over to Loreto for a multi-day stay on the main square. Did some boating on the Loreto Bay with our friend Rick, who has a winter home there.
For the trip in pictures, go here. For a map of the route, go here.

We have been wanting to ride motorcycles in South America for many years now. Finally the time has come! Colombia will be the first country to visit.

CDT = Continental Divide Trail. This is a route across the United States of America that stretches from Canada to Mexico along the geographic Continental Divide as closely as possible. And, I decided to ride it on a motorcycle.
Where have you ridden?

After the topic of hobbies, travel or motorcycles is introduced into a conversation, and I explain my habit of riding to far off places, the next question I'm asked is, "Where have you ridden?"
The answer is a long list. Many roads, destinations and experiences. I believe a better answer is to show the places I've been.
